It seems that many brands have their "thing" as they get caught by a bad batch of parts being applied in a new way.

For example, Audi 2.0TFSI engines suffer from bad oul consumption due to bad oil rings in the cylinders. Audi has not addressed the issue between 2009 and 2016 B8/B8.5 generation.
The solution is much like this one: rebuild/replace engine.

And we also know all the timing chain tensioner saga between VAG group brand and Mini and N20/N26 in the BMW. Probably a 50 cent part causing all the grief.
